Where do I turn on/off steering wheel heating?
It works with pre-heat, but haven’t found a button (like seat heating) to turn it on/off manually

Bottom of the steering wheel?

Thnx! Owh that’s a button, my wheel is carbon, just thought that was an inlay

It's on the backside of the wheel - the front side is still carbon. Stick your finger through the hole and push on the spot (pun intended)

I won’t tell my wife that I touch the knob and she gets all hot

Can anyone confirm if the pump / sealant are standard since the MY 2020?

Not sure, depends on the market, I had to pay €64 extra for that “option”…

Thanks, mine was missing in the US, but the dealer sent me one since then.

Not in UK but has been since MY23.

Pump and sealant are standard here (MY23) but never use the sealant unless you're in a life/death situation. That crap putz the last nail into your tyre's coffin (pun intended). I rather have the car towed to a shop.

Would you drive a Taycan on a repaired tyre? Not sure I would.

That really depends on circumstances. A clean nail puncture around the center that's properly repaired with vulcanization (not the push pull string thing) is ok for my type of driving.

On a track, perhaps not. For every day driving, I've driven on plugged tire for years, which included some spirited driving. No air leakage whatsoever. The puncture was smack in the middle of the tire.

Exactly - when done professionally in a center tire location, both plugged AND patched from inside they can be completely sound. I’m actually driving on two such repairs in present tires for last 1000 miles or so with zero issues !
